Wow, a non-Asian food spot opening on Baldwin - what a shock.

In fairness though, there's been an Asian presence on Baldwin for a while now with some older Chinese restaurants still around. Many of the newer spots seem to cater to post-secondary students, similar to the places along Spadina closer to College.

Thai Nyyom takes its name from the word for popular in Thai. It's apt, seeing as this space was home to Italian hot table joint Nonna's Place that inspire…

“Under-penetrated!?" 3G's gotta 3G.
I'm under-penetrated by Burger King, as has been my express desire.

To be fair to Burger King they aren't nearly as common in much of Ontario compared to their competitors. Lots of places don't have Burger Kings but have A&W, multiple Mcdonalds, Harveys, etc.
They are also probably my least favourite option out of the large burger joints though.

All of the large majors are terrible. Chains w/better burgers are South St, and Burger's Priest
On BK specifically:
1) Lots of existing locations are still veritable dumpster fires that still have early 90's pastel plastic decors.
2) They really must move to customizable toppings, they had/have a concept called BK Whopper Bar that has that.......I do not want what may be real beef dripping with 3tbsps of mayo or uber-sweet ketchup. Nor do I wish to see under ripe tomato, or wilted lettuce atop my burger.
Let me see the damned toppings and I will correctly order mustard, onion, hot peppers, and a slice of ripe tomato on my burger!
3)New rule for all fast food places, either enclose the kitchen OR turn the loud endless beeping off the damned fryers. Have the notification go to staff headphones wirelessly. Very do-able.
4)Would someone tell them only one fast food establshment has ever come close to making frozen fries taste like something other than wallpaper paste.......back to fresh-cut, fries.
Also, FFS, I want vinegar on the condiment stand. All good fries need vinegar, or aioli.
Just saying.
Edit to add: And really, they need to get licensed. Simple premise, there's no excuse for patronizing that establishment while sober!

Moss Park: Schnitzel Queen is shutting down at the end of the month. The rents are too damn high! I wish Samuel were here, for real.
They just got their straight from the brewery Pilsner Urquell a few months ago too, shame that.

Some pretty big news from a well-known chain in Toronto
www.blogto.com/eat_drink/2019/12/3-brewers-shutting-down-toronto-locations/
Yonge+Dundas location is safe, but this will change the pub landscape across the city significantly.

What a shame. I quite enjoyed going to their Liberty Village location. That is probably 2nd place on my list of LV bar/pubs after the Local.
I would imagine their aggressive expansion lead to their downfall. Their downtown location seems to do well. But likely the suburban and Financial District ones may have under-performed.
